The presence of halogen, in an organic compounds, is detected by

A

Iodoform test

B

Silver nitrate test

C

Beilstein's test

D

Millon's test

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Halogens are detected by Beilstein's test. In this test, a copper wire is dipped in original solution and heated in a Bunsen burner flame. Green colour is imparted to the flame, due to the formation of a volatile copper halide. This proves the presence of halogen.
